    Economic value added = $640,000

    Explanation:

    given data

    operating income = $3,500,000

    tax rate = 36% = 0.36

    total invested capital = $20,000,000

    cost of capital = 8% = 0.08

    solution

    we get here EVA (Economic value added) that is express as

    Economic value added = Net Operating Profit After Taxes - Investment * WACC ... 1

    here net Operating Profit After Taxes = $3,500,000 * (1 - 0.36)

    net Operating Profit After Taxes = $2,240,000

    so from equation 1

    Economic value added = $2,240,000 - $20,000,000 * 0.08

    Economic value added = $2,240,000 - $1,600,000

    Economic value added = $640,000
